The Osheaga flyer looks a bit like an eyechart, with all 65 bands of the bands who will play at the 2-day festival squeezed in. I’ve seen the term alternative resurface to describe the lineup, which for me brings back fond memories of engaging in passionate debates over the meaning of Our Lady Peace [...]

Being one of the many poor lost souls unable to get some back when they originally went out on sale, tickets for the five night Ukrainian Federation concerts were an unattainable treasure.
